0827 在你的痛苦中找到我
亲爱的，我不希望你在经历了强烈的情感，如愤怒、恐惧和悲伤之后，却把它们扫在地毯下面掩盖起来，【当做什么都没发生】。我希望你能正视它们，我希望你留意自己的反应，了解那些触动你情绪的事情，然后来到我面前，好让我能用我的爱来滋养你。
每一种痛苦背后的根源，都需要我的触碰和接纳。你无需费力挖掘旧伤，寻找问题所在。但当生活触动你时，要留意。许多看似无止境重复的情绪模式，其实是指向那些需要被医治领域的路标。如果你求我向你显明不健康情绪背后的原因，我答应你。我不仅了解你的一切，也知道如何医治你。我不希望你过一种内省的、专注于痛苦的生活；我希望你在痛苦当中专注于我，在痛苦中找到我，并听见我对此要说的话。不要逃避那些你不理解的事，而是要正视这些问题，并相信我会为你带来智慧、洞见和自由。
祢亲近那些呼求祢的人，祢仔细聆听，尤其聆听那些真心实意的人。凡敬虔爱祢的人，都必得到远超过他们所求的。因为祢听见他们心中真正的渴望，并且赐下救恩的力量。——诗篇 145:18-19
0827 Find me in your pain
Beloved, I don’t want you to experience deep emotion, such as anger, fear, and sorrow, and then sweep it under the rug. I want you to acknowledge it. I want you to listen to your reactions and the things that trigger you and come to me, so I can nurture you with my love.
Every pain is rooted in something that needs my touch and acknowledgment. You don’t have to dig around and poke old wounds, looking for problems. But pay attention when life triggers you. Many of the emotional patterns that feel like an endless cycle are road signs to areas that need healing. If you will ask me to show you the underlying causes of unhealthy emotions, I will. I not only know everything about you, but I also know how to heal you. I don’t want you to live an introspective life focused on the pain, but I want you to focus on me in the midst of it, to find me in the pain, and to hear what I have to say about it. Don’t run from the things you don’t understand, but do acknowledge these issues and trust me to bring wisdom, insight, and freedom.
You draw near to those who call out to you, listening closely, especially when their hearts are true. Every one of your godly lovers receives even more than what they ask for. For you hear what their hearts really long for and you bring them your saving strength. –PSALM 145:18-19
